people will write books about this company's colossal management fail.
Travelers from China = Super Spreader Bioweapon. China is allowing all their infected travel internationally to start another global pandemic like 2020. Block all their entry into all countries.
Bye Bye Southwest
Southwest pulls this sh*t all the time. Decided years ago to never ever fly them again.
The end of Southwest.
This is a complete and catastrophic failure
Here comes the lawsuit
We've spent the last couple centuries enthralled over Christmas storms inspiring "Sleigh ride", and "Winter Wonderland". So cute!. Well the world has changed a lot, and winter storms are just a pain in the a– now.
Common Sense storm warnings have been flashing on my phone for the last 2 weeks you would think that would be a number one thing to check before flying or even considering flying unless you booked your trip in advance🤦🏽♀️🤐
Welcome to unregulated corporatism
Well, I'm nobody. I don't know a thing, but I would think it's better not to fly, than to fly in the midst of chaos. Dontcha think?
Thank god I cancelled my southwest flight. Staying in doesn't seem so bad. My friend is still trying to fly out NYE with Southwest lol. Says she should be okay on Friday. 😂💀
Have mercy been waitin' for the bus all day.
Southwest Airlines CEO has determined that canceling the 2600+ flights will help increase his salary in the coming year.
😅🤣😂 – Who is SW CEO trying to kid? Since only a third of flights are operating, does that mean that Bob and his "team" can only collect a third of their salaries? After all, the CEO, and his executive team make the decisions that manage the operation.
disgraceful
There's no surprises here! Just like every year, traveling during the holidays, are hectic. When people gonna learn?Throw in predictable "winter" weather and this the result.
Lol. Glad i didnt fly. Drivings where its at.
When is America going to realize that we need other options for transportation? #HighspeedRail
OUCH!!!!!
Sorry for these airline passengers, but CHAOS must awaken!
Rumor has it, Southwest gonna be going on strike soon.
As an American Atheist, I'm glad I don't have to travel during this time of year.
